Thank you.

 

Always jealous of your photos! Well done sir!

Pristine G Bar Andrew! How do you like the scent on the soap and AS?

 

If I can be of any enabling.... I mean assistance on this part of your "frugal" shave, I humbly offer my assistance.

 

Thanks Aaron! It's nice but a bit too heavy on the florals for my liking.

For me this version of the ER 1912 is my best one, love the feel of the handle and being quite minty Shaves beautifully. A most enjoyable Shave with great results.

 

Tabac Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #340 Badger
Dad's Schick E3
Personna Injector
CWR
Tabac AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #340 Badger brush. I did two passes with Dad's Schick E3 razor with a Personna Injector blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I find it quite strange that a Razor, which looks and feels good in the hand when in use, delivers me rather poor Shaves.This is not a one off , but somehow the Razor does not seem to cope well with my beard growth, and I always seem to be left with areas still rather stubbly. I may well have to stop using it as I end up being frustrated at the end of a Shave.

So, I used the brush, razor, aftershave and scuttle from the Travel Box 2019 for this mornings shave.
I will save the video for now, since we have something going on across the street.
This boar brush is breaking in nicely, and still has lots of backbone, I'm impressed by it. I was expecting the Star razor to shave similar to a Gem Damanskee, and while they are close, I prefer the star! (Now another rabbit hole for me to explore. )
The Arko aftershave gel was exactly what I was hoping it would be, no big surprise, and the scent is very pleasing, though not long lasting .
All in all great shave this morning. Will is at least one other thing from the travel Box, then start working on collectingsome samples to try down the line!
Shave on!
